Emotional moment there for the English Anthem as the camera went up the line up
Jordan Pickford : “God Save Our Gracious Queen….”
Dele Alli : “Long live our noble queen…”
Harry Maguire : “God Save Our Queen…”
Declan Rice : “IT’S JUST A BROAD BLACK BRIMMER…” #ENGCZE— Anthony O'Connor (@Antcon7062) March 22, 2019

Disgusting scenes at Wembley as the Czech fans make 'it was straight at him' gestures during the Gordon Banks tributes. #ENGCZE

Enjoy this – it's the only increase in the value of Sterling we're going to see for a while. #ENGCZE

Raheem would have scored 4 goals but for Brexit.

I thought that fifth goal was cruel. Kalas, in fact. #ENGCZE

A momentous night for #BristolCity.
Tomas Kalas has become the first City player to score for England since John Atyeo in 1957. #ENGCZE

England all-time goalscorers update: Own Goals moves up to 51, in 2nd place and just two short of Wayne Rooney's record. Top spot in its sights

Gary, i’d maybe hold back till they’ve faced the might of Kazakhstan- they’ve been brushing away some World Cup contenders of late.
